1ST GRADE

Overview:

First grade follows the Ohio Common Core Standards as well as the Diocese of Cleveland Curriculum. First grade is a special time when students are learning to be responsible for their learning. It is no longer acceptable to expect mom or dad to do things for us but rather to recognize it is "my job" and take pride in this responsibility. There is a mix of group and individual learning activities as the students settle into their rolls as life long learners.
